Rip Haywire by Dan Thompson for December 21, 2009
Transcript:
Rip & Cobra are doing security for Santa. Cobra: I've got the perimeter, you handle the entry point. Rip: Don't forget we're bringing things in, not out, master thief. Cobra: Really? So it's like that? You think I'd burgle on Christmas eve? Rip: I think you'd sell your sainted mother for the right price. Santa: Um... We've got a schedu - Cobra: Zip it, Kringle. Rip: Yeah, give the gift of silence, will ya?
My God. Has it really been that long since last I dropped in on Rip and his misadventures? I kept winding the calendar back but it gave up in December, 2009. The last thing I remember was profusely apologizing to DanT for admittedly over the top remarks I made about a Brainzo plot line.
Again, DanT, I apologize. Perhaps you have forgotten the mean things I typed, but I have not. Some things we are doomed to carry about for the rest of our lives. Isn’t it ironic that the ugliest parts of our history are the ones we can’t forget?
On a more cheerful note, I am glad to see the strip prospering and may I wish you all the best going forward! Myself, I now am a provider of “Dad” jokes. I’m not saying they are “good” jokes, but merely “Dad” jokes. Still, I consider the day a win if I have made one stranger smile.
Why do ducks have tail feathers?
So people can’t see their butt quacks!
